FISIA ITALIMPIANTI Platinum Sponsor at IDA Conference, Santa Margherita Ligure, Italy
Energy, technological challenges and desalination are the topics of the third “ACTION4GOOD” international conference, promoted by IDA - International Desalination Association -, which will be held at Grand Miramare Hotel, Santa Margherita Ligure-Portofino, Italy, from May 12th to 14th, 2019.
Fisia Italimpianti, Salini Impregilo Group, will be Platinum Sponsor of the event. This sponsorship underlines the engagement in environmental sustainability of the company, a worldwide leader in the sustainable design and execution of water treatment and desalination plants and always engaged to fight against environmental pollution and scarcity of potable water in developing Countries.
Desalination is the main topic of the conference (this year entitled “Creating resilient solutions to water need”), one of the most innovative solutions to oppose water scarcity, people increase, quick urbanization and expansion of municipal water and wastewater.
Fisia Italimpianti, with over 90 years of experience, is now engaged in the design and execution of desalination projects in Countries as Saudi Arabia, Oman and United Arab Emirates. Research and Development are the basis of the company activities, which has constituted an inside dedicated department. The aim is to find solutions to minimize the energy consumption and to increase the use of renewable resources, making competitive plants in terms of costs and delivery.
Fisia Italimpianti intends to reinforce its leadership in desalination and water treatment field, betting on a megatrend that, on a global level, sees the water request destined to increase on next decades. In particular, against about a 20% of world population who is now suffering for water scarcity, United Nations foresee this percentage will increase until 40% of world population in 2025, with the subsequent need to increase as fast as possible the potable water production capacity.
These topics will be investigated on next May, 13th, during Fisia Italimpianti’s presentation “Improving flexibility of SWRO units fed by renewable energy trough an efficient design of trains configuration for large desalination plants”.
